I was born in Zimbabwe on 03/06/88. My family, consisting of parents, older brother and sister, migrated to South Africa when I was six months old. We moved back to Zimbabwe six years later, to help my grandparents on their farm - a career change for my father.
After a measly eighteen months we upped sticks and went farming on our own. This led us to Kwekwe, in the heart of Zimbabwe, to farm tobacco! Borrowdale farm which is part of the "Midlands Black Rhino Conservancy" is where we settled . This was the most incredible experience, living with such an abundance of wild life ........... of which we became a part of during the school holidays! Due to the "land redistribution policy" we had no option but to move on.
10th November, 2001 saw us arrive in New Zealand with our former lives packed into a suitcase each, ready to start our new lives. Our first three years were spent on the South Island and I nearly froze!!!!!!! A great employment opportunity for my father had us move up to the North Island. I now live on a farm just outside Matamata aka "Hobbiton" (defrosting).
Yep that should sum it up ha!

well? what other comments would you get when all your pictures are AMAZING! You truly are one fantastic photographer .. now, about this picture.. for some reason the first thing I saw was in the background; it looks like there is a huge boa there or something ... a huge snake of some sort. WAS IT? lol maybe it was there and you just didn't notice :) Anyway, this is a gorgeous photo ... beautiful. I'll bet you totally enjoyed that walk to the Falls ... Happy New Year :)
